Blyth

Coastal parts of the region saw the snow before other areas, but forecasters expect it to be rainy rather than snowy for the rest of Thursday.

The same goes for Friday morning, with the predicted rain set to subside in the late morning.

Newcastle

Snow fall, or rain, is highly likely throughout Thursday, with temperatures of 1C - 2C.

On Friday, there is another chance of snow through the morning, although currently it looks more likely to be rain due to slightly higher temperatures of 3C - 4C. It will feel a lot colder though, due to icy winds.

Consett

Expect freezing temperatures throughout Thursday, with a high chance of snow all day.

On Friday, Consett looks set for more snow, until around 10am, when the skies are set to clear.

Sunderland

Forecasters say Sunderland can expect snow, or rain, to fall at any time throughout Thursday. The temperature is predicted to warm to 4C later in the day, meaning rain is more likely.

Wearside can expect a rainy morning on Friday too, but it should clear up by late morning. Again, temperatures of around 4C to 5C mean rain is more likely than snow.
